About rtijohnb/pixytracker
Pixytracker is a C++ application that demonstrates real-time object tracking using a Pixy camera and colored objects. It works as a companion to the PixyShapes demo, providing network-based servo control to keep a tracked object centered in the camera's field of view.
The application allows users to specify which colored ball to track via command-line arguments. It subscribes to a Circle topic with content filtering based on the selected color and implements a simple tracking algorithm that publishes servo control commands. These commands adjust the Pixy camera's position to maintain the ball at the center of the screen during operation.
The project was built for macOS using Eclipse as the development environment and is designed for users working with Pixy camera systems who want to experiment with automated object tracking and camera control.
